Does anyone have a link to a site (or is there a post here somewhere?) that puts sewing jargon into "plain English"?

Right here is a good site to try. What is it that you need translated into simple sewing terms? I'm sure someone here can help.

I can't think of them now, I don't tend to remember words that I don't know what they mean, LOL! I'll have some time tonight to look around some more and see what I can find.

Sewing jargon can be confusing. There is always someone around who can help you. Pretty soon you will be talking "sewing jargon" too. :smile:
